Question

Read and Follow Instructions Carefully: Show all your work by steps for each problem, beginning with stating the   null hypothesis, and then show the appropriate formula, then show that formula with all values substituted into the formula, and then show major intermediate calculation steps as appropriate. Indicate the result of the statistical test and hypothesis decision you make, followed by a short written statement of your conclusion that derives from your hypothesis testing decision.   Neatness counts!   Darin’s who cannot read what your writing, cannot give you credit.

PROBLEM 1

Analyze data from simple study to compare Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and the drug Zoloft for treating   Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.   The data are shown below.

Conduct an ANOVA followed by multiple comparisons using LSD tests and effect size estimates using both d and r effect size calculation that compare each method to each other. Scores for each subject represent subject performance on an assessment of symptoms after 8 weeks of treatment or no treatment. Higher scores indicate more symptoms.

SSA=5(24.8-(21.33))^2……5(18.2-(21.33))^2=109.73

SSW=(27-(24.8))^2….(17-(18.2))^2=133.6

MSA=109.73/(3-1)=54.87

MSW=133.6/(15-3)=11.13

F=54.87/11.13=4.93  

F crit=3.89

F>FCRIT, hence reject the null hypothesis

DF c=3 and (n-c)=(15-3)=12, Qa=3.77

Tukey Kramer Test: -

CR=Qa* MSW/2(1/n+1/n)

CR= 3.77*11.13/2*(1/5+1/5)

     = 3.77*1.49

     = 5.62

Only X1-X3 is greater than 5.62 and hence there is difference between X1 and X3.
